Boyfriend troubles at 37 weeks.

I'm 37 weeks and 3 days. Me and my boyfriend; The baby's father have been having a rough time lately. As the due date gets closer he and I fight more. I can't tell if he's scared Or just doesn't know what to do. He keeps telling me find someone better.. I couldn't think of anyone else but him quite frankly, well paying job, no car but I have one and my license. He lives with his mother until I start going back to work. But still, he is a great man and I don't understand why I'm being pushed away when I'm the one who needs the support right now. I am always right there whenever he goes into one of these things, he cries and tells me to just take our baby and go.. Is it Nerves? What should I do.. My induction date is on the 12 of January because my daughter isn't gaining anymore weight. Help..?

Have you tried sitting down and really talking to him? It could just be nerves and since the baby is almost here, he can be panicking on how to take care of both of you. I really think its nerves. My husband was nervous before our daughter was born and still is. It's mainly because he wants us to have better though, yet we're doing ok. Talk things out cause once your daughter is born, things will get a bit more stressful.

I don't understand some men, you are the one who needs him right now. You shouldn't have to calm him down. U really don't need the stress. If he can't see that, why bother? I'm sorry I just hate people who waste my time.

He's about to be a dad. VERY SOON. And he doesn't have himself in gear. As much as society and guy's thoughts on being dads have led us to believe.

No house with you. No car.

His self-esteem right now is shot.

It's normal. He'll be okay. Just lay on the positive thoughts, talks, and ego stroking.

To the PP who said to leave him: Ugh. Sorry, but I'm glad you're not in my life. That's rather hurtful to say. You know, relationships are a two way street, and sometimes, shocker, BOTH people can be down and out. That doesn't mean you leave. You stick through it.

Because he's scared to death.

Well we are both 18. He's started to come around. He came and saw me yesterday and has apologized for not "manning" up. He is not looking for an apartment by my job and he just got a second Job and Started yesterday. Things are looking up. O'm 38 and 3 now so hopefully my baby girl comes soon. Thanks for the advice everyone. (:
